Redefining Resonance

The Pettits

This week on the final episode of Redefining Resonance, I'm diving deep into my musical roots with the two people who shaped my love for music most: my parents, Laura and Keith Pettit. We explore how music isn't just a sound, but a generational language that connects family, emotions, and memories. From church choirs to living room karaoke sessions, my parents share their musical journeys, revealing how music has been foundational for our family for generations. This episode is full of laughs and holds a very special place in my heart! Please join us as we uncover how music has not only shaped us individually, but brought us closer together as a family.

June McCormick

This week on Redefining Resonance, I’m joined by June McCormick of the Forester Sisters, the legendary country group made up of four sisters from Lookout Mountain, GA. June shares how their journey began in a small church, singing together as sisters, and how that foundation led to a career with Warner Brothers and international tours. We talk about balancing motherhood and music, the decision to step away from the spotlight, and what it means to prioritize the things that truly matter as seasons change. From the challenges of being women in a male-dominated industry to the beauty of embracing change for the sake of family, this episode is a powerful reminder that our calling can evolve, and that’s a beautiful thing.

Michael Marsilio

This week on Redefining Resonance, I’m joined by my brother-in-law, Michael Marsilio, who has spent over 15 years leading worship and serving in ministry. We talk about what it really means to use music as a form of faithful devotion, not for performance or applause, but as a way to glorify God.  Michael shares his heart for worship and how, within the Christian faith, every expression of it holds value, no matter the style or setting. From the difference between performing and leading to the deeper purpose behind every note sung or played, this episode is full of honest conversation about why Christians are called to keep God at the center of it all.

Beth Strabala

This week on Redefining Resonance, I sat down with Beth Strabala, my high school choir director and one of the most passionate music educators I know. She’s taught everything from preschool music classes to high school choirs, and in this episode, we dive into what those experiences have been like. We talk about how choir isn’t just about hitting the right notes, but it’s about teamwork, confidence, and all those life lessons that stick with you long after the final performance. With plenty of laughs and heartfelt reflections, this episode is a reminder of why, especially during those formative years, choir and music classes are about so much more than just music.

Southam

This week on Redefining Resonance, I'm joined by the members of Southam — Dylan Stansel, Seth Banks, and Jared Cox. From college connections to forming a band, these three musicians have built something special through their shared love of music. We talk about their journey, the stories behind making music, and what it’s like to collaborate as a band. Through life's challenges and ever-changing circumstances, their bond has grown beyond friendship, reaching a whole new level of connection through their music.
